Genetic interaction motif finding by expectation maximization - a novel statistical model for inferring gene modules from synthe
Background: Synthetic lethality experiments identify pairs of genes with complementary function. More direct functional associations (for example greater probability of membership...

VARUN: Discovering Extensible Motifs under Saturation Constraints
Abstract-The discovery of motifs in biosequences is frequently torn between the rigidity of the model on the one hand and the abundance of candidates on the other. In particular, m...

False occurrences of functional motifs in protein sequences highlight evolutionary constraints
Background: False occurrences of functional motifs in protein sequences can be considered as random events due solely to the sequence composition of a proteome. Here we use a nume...
